8. Depending on what you want to do, you can either choose to fly in P, A or F mode:
-
P mode (positioning): if the GPS is used for positioning
-
A mode (Attitude): if you want to fly manually without using GPS for positioning.
This is very difficult and not recommended
-
F mode (Function): if you want to fly with a function (automatic flight plan) from
the iPad (recommended)
Flying/landing the drone
After finishing the setup you should be good to go. In this manual, we assume you will fly in F mode.
If you are not, we recommend to look up more information in the extensive manual of the DJI
Phantom 3 which can be found here:

1. Put the drone on some sort of a platform from which it can safely launch itself, for example
the suitcase of the drone. Don't use the suitcase of other devices as the content of the box
might interfere with the drone's GPS signal. When you are ready, create a distance of a few
meters between you and the drone before launching.
2. Go to the flight plan you wish to execute and click "Fly"
(If you do not have a flight plan yet, make one first and check the next chapters about the DJI
GO App and advanced settings.)
3. A "prepare for flight"- window will pop up. All checkmarks should be green or at least orange
before you can fly.
a. For the first flight you have to calibrate the GPS of the aircraft. Instructions on how
to calibrate the aircraft will show up automatically. Follow these instructions.
IMPORTANT: make sure there is no interference from metal objects nearby i.e. the
Zeb-Revo or DGPS!
b. If needed, UNLOCK the no-fly zone
c. Wait until all waypoint data is transmitted (this takes about 10-20 seconds)
d. Make sure that the battery has sufficient charge left to finish the flight plan. The
drone will automatically return home when the battery is around 15-17%. (You can
change that number with a minimum of 15%)
e. Check again if you have enough available storage on your SD card
4. Click "start to fly" when you have checked all of the above and it is safe to launch the drone.
